Baldwin Center for Preservation Development holds First Event

Posted by Casey Williams on June 8th, 2008

During May, the Baldwin Center for Preservation Development began a series of programs geared at connecting people with the environment that surrounds them. Bundoran Farm residents and neighbors from around Albemarle County participated in a Wildflower Hike set in and amongst the trails and forest of Bundoran Farm. Participants identified several spring bloomers, including Rue Anemone, May-Apple, and Pennywort, all of which benefit from the bright spring sun, producing leaves, flowers and seeds before the upper tree canopy shades the woodland floor. The Baldwin Center for Preservation Development is a non-profit foundation and is dedicated to advancing state-of-the-art practices in rural land use planning and development, agricultural preservation, environmental stewardship and to sharing the lessons and experiences of Bundoran Farm with others.
